What are the end products of anaerobic respirations in yeast? 

Dear Student ,

Please find below the solution to the asked query:

In yeast anaerobic respiration takes place and its end product is ethanol ,carbon dioxide and energy. Yeast is the fungus and it can undergo both aerobic and anaerobic respiration. Anaerobic respiration is yeast is also called fermentation. In this firstly glucose is converted into pyruvate by the process of glycolysis, In this process, 2 ATP is released. now this pyruvate acid is converted into the ethanol by the process of anaerobic respiration called fermentation ad released carbon dioxide. Therefore the product of anaerobic respiration is carbon dioxide, ATP and ethanol in the yeast.
Equation is -: C6H12O6 → 2C2H5OH + 2CO2 + 2 ATP

The respiration which takes place without oxygen is known as anaerobic respiration. The microorganisms like yeast break down glucose (food) into ethanol, carbon dioxide and releases energy.
